I have been concerned that shareholders have so little role in director
selection, only a vote for or against the managements' candidates. I have wondered
how shareholders could have a more effective role.
I live on a pension fund and own mutual fund shares so I care about the
mangement of US companies. I have been greatly distressed by all the frauds in
recent years.
I applaud and support the SEC's consideration of proxy rules and I hope the
rules will be changed to give shareholders a greater say in the selection of
directors and in company oversight.
